Standard VW /Golf/Jetta carb, Midas/Autozone +-R700.

Apparantly it is an excellent conversion, more fuel effiecient, way more power, ag, sommer net lekker, I heard.
'02 KZ 'Lux. Cooled. Chipped. Onca'd. Cherished!

If you are a diesel fan, raise your hand.
If you aren't raising your hand, raise your standards!

A 4x4 is merely a machine that enables you to get stuck further away from civilization.

I heard the same, but remember to get the adapter plate as well. Refer here for more details:

You might have to refresh that page a few times, the site has been experiencing problems lately.
